Alone long and easy drivable roads like highways or german autobahns would have a huge benefit and simple to automate.

You woound only need local people to grab the truck at a parking spot close by to drive them to the target location.

That alone would help long road truckers to see their familys and not having to sleep in their trucks. It would save costs and would make it saver for everyone if all the trucks drive automatically.

BMW and other EV developers can already drive on a lot of german autobahn hands free.

What i also don't understand, if i really want the benefit of self driving car, I only need it when i'm driving long or when i'm intoxicated. Tbh. let me just record the road from bar to my home, let me drive it for a few times until my car knows that direction and done.

Comma.ai is here today and does it for that. I highly recommend one for all of my friends! (Not being paid to say that, just a happy customer.)
